The film crew spent months and went abroad to seek documents and images for the film, said Khanh, adding that many scenes were shot in the US and China to create the truthfulness for the documentary.
Through the film, which was made based on available historical documents, recommendations from historical experts and graphic effects, the film-makers want to bring President Ho Chi Minh’s meaningful messages and thoughts to the audiences, especially young generations.
